OUR PRESCHOOL PROGRAMs

Early Horizons offers multiple classrooms for the preschool age group (ages 2-5 years). These classrooms implement the same curriculum, basic structure, and nurturing care, to meet children at their developmental age level.
At the preschool level Early Horizons' curriculum is a balance between independent play and gentle guidance in an environment rich with choices. By providing children with activities that match their developmental needs and energy level, learning occurs easily and naturally.
We prepare children for mastering basic skills by developing strong "pre-skills". To support a love for reading and writing, Early Horizons' teachers spend time reading to children and offer books for them to read on their own. We use their written name throughout the day and write other words for them so they can see their thoughts written down. To develop early mathematical skills, we first develop an understanding for one-to-one correspondence. Counting by rote to 100 does not show a significant developmental leap if they are not yet able to count out two separate objects. For science, we hope to instill a sense of curiosity, which allows children to explore and question their world. We plan an extensive daily curriculum with lesson plans that include a variety of activities that develop basic cognitive skills as well as gross and fine motor skills. Each classroom has a copy of their lesson plan available to you, so you can see what your child is enjoying each day.
Teachers keep in touch with parents throughout the day using an app and a posted daily info sheet, as well as in depth verbal communication at the start and end of each day.
